One requirement, the probability of kill
given an engagement opportunity (PK(EO))---did not take into account selected
human factors and new technology that the contractor would include in the Javelin.
The IOT&E,
which was completed in December 1993, resulted in the conclusion that the Javelin
was effective, but required further assessment for suitability, necessitating follow-on
testing in the form of a Limited User Test (LUT) beginning in April 1996.
Javelin Antitank Missile
The Javelin is a manportable, fire-and-forget, antitank missile employed by
dismounted infantry to defeat current and future threat armored combat vehicles.
The LUT consisted of three events: Situational Tactical Exercises, which were
limited force-on-force engagements; Live Fire Exercises, which consisted of six
explosive warhead shots; and Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System Pairing
and Operational Lock-on Trials, which compared the ability of the Javelin field
tactical trainer to replicate the tactical system.
(Scouts, however, will not use the Javelin to
seek out and destroy enemy armor in offensive operations.
It consisted
of three progressive phases that challenged the Javelin against current and emerging
tank threats.
The Javelin's range of approximately 2,500 meters is more than twice that of its predecessor, the Dragon.
The Javelin is a tactical precision engagement system that enhances the Army's ability to dominate the ground maneuver battle.
As outlined in the BLRIP (April 1997) to
Congress, the Javelin Anti-Tank Weapons System was judged to be operationally
effective, suitable and lethal (BLRIP report is included in a separately bound annex
of the classified version of this annual report).
The Night Vision Laboratory has developed materials to train Javelin gunners to identify friends and targets based on their IR images.
The Joint Service
Operational Requirements document for the Javelin was approved in 1986 and
amended in 1988.
There are several Javelin enhanced producibility
program (EPP) changes that are being incorporated in the system to enhance
producibility and reduce cost.
Javelin Antitank Missile
In March and April 1997, and in accordance with the approved TEMP (March 12,
1997), a Confirmatory Test (CT) was conducted at Fort Benning, Georgia, to
confirm that a Javelin Enhanced Producibility Program (EPP) had not adversely
affected the effectiveness and suitability of the system.
) The Javelin consists of a missile in a disposable launch tube and a reusable
Command Launch Unit (CLU) with a trigger mechanism and the integrated day/night sighting device for surveillance, and target acquisition and built-in test capabilities and associated electronics.
After live testing, appropriate corrections
were made to input data of the penetration model before Javelin's lethality were
computed.
LFT&E
preshot predictions overstated the penetration of the Javelin warhead against targets
protected by Explosive Reactive Armor.
There were several changes made
to the Javelin that resulted from either Operational or Live Fire Testing.

of the most valuable dimensions of the tape is that he shows examples of technique and then makes concrete suggestions of how to make corrections.... I don't think that you can have too many examples of world class throwers and he has brought together a wide variety of styles and approaches rather than the more traditional training tape approach of using just one athlete.... Great tape." Bruce Kennedy, Coach, 3-time Olympian in the javelin. .
